How many Miles Per Galon can you get from your Mopar?

Example: If your getting on average 10 - 13 MPG you would vote 13.

I can get 16 MPG out of the Challenger.

Most of the time I get 17 on the highway, 15 around town... But when I went out to NY last August, I got rid of the tailgate, filled up on 93 or 94 octane all the way out, and I got 19 mpg. I almost fell over when I saw 19 come out of my truck.

I get a whopping 11 mpg out of my wagon, but dual exhaust should help a little when I get it.

Good job I have a short commute.

Never realy tried to figure out what the '88 Shadow ES turbo or '94 4.0l ZJ Laredo got. My '85 Lebaron GTS would get between 13-16 mpg around town and between 25-30 mpg on the open road (depending on how badly I was speeding) In my '98 XJ Limited I've been get between 14.5-16 around town and Dad had a best of 21 mpg on the way home from the James Dean Festival in September.

the '97 concord gets 24mpg combined, 30+ highway, but the '71 Charger only gets about 10 mpg highway.

With the 340 72 Duster and the 360 74 Duster I get as much as I can,about 12 MPG combined driving on both cars. The disappointment comes from the 04 PT Cruiser GT 16C 18H.

I get about 6 mpg on my 440 Dart with a Holley 4779C 750cfm 4 barrel. I am adding a Perfomance Distributor Tri-Power distributor and then having it dyno tuned. I hope it gets close to double digit mpg.

Twin turbo 340 Challenger. About 600hp. Current engine got just over 19 mpg going 1600 miles to the Nats and back at 80+ mph. Actually did worse at 60 mph. Expect the new engine to do closer to 22 mpg.
